    Low budget upgrades.

    Honestly, nothing, im able to play all games maxed, some games need some minor tweaks here and there, but thats okay. Other than that general usage is also just fine, PC never slows down whatsoever, thats why im not sure whether i should upgrade or not.

    msi 560se - is this particular model quiet?

    Not talking about 3ds max in particular, but an OCd 7770 shows decent compute performance. http://www.anandtech.com/show/5541/amd-radeon-hd-7750-radeon-hd-7770-ghz-edition-review/21

    msi 560se - is this particular model quiet?

    Well id say a 7770 OC would make more sense, its on par when it comes to games, would cost somewhat less and will consume less power.
